The evening will include a four-course dinner and music by Junior, who will be joined by Michael Jefry Stevens (piano), Mike Holstein (bass) and Justin Watt (drums).

Junior grew up in Wisconsin and performed at numerous clubs in Milwaukee, only too venture to New York City where he was a regular performer with Cobi Norita’s Universal Jazz coalition and Voices Inc. He studied with piano legend Barry Harris, and was heavily influenced by Billie Holiday, Johnny Hartman, Joe Williams and Louis Armstrong.

Stevens has been associated with some of the most notable figures in modern jazz and has been in the forefront of the NYC and international improvised music scene. He was also named a Steinway Performing Artist in 2009. As a student at Western Carolina University, Holstein discovered the bass, and within a few years was performing regularly, now becoming one of the most sought after bassists in the Southeast. Watt worked for two-and-a-half years as drummer with the world-famous Glenn Miller Band, touring the United States, Japan and Canada. He teaches percussion at the Asheville Music School, and is an Adjunct Professor at the University of North Carolina-Asheville.
